Probably not this route lol but I’m picturing a plate of roasted potatoes, a garden salad, a bean salad, surrounding a chicken leg that’s going untouched.

I just found out my 10yo has been lagging behind in spelling because he’s been using speech-to-text on his school issued iPad for class work. He doesn’t have to think about it or try sounding it out, so of course an unpracticed in-development skill is waning. It’s going to be an interesting parent-teacher meeting coming up.

Right? 2025 on Earth still existed in Star Trek. There’s a non-zero chance you press the button and nothing happens… So you think it didn’t work and push it again only to end up with the BDSM elves…

No it’s not.

From the Oxford dictionary:

obstinate or unreasonable attachment to a belief, opinion, or faction, in particular prejudice against a person or people on the basis of their membership of a particular group.

From the Collins dictionary:

Bigotry is the possession or expression of strong, unreasonable prejudices or opinions.

From vocabulary.com:

A bigot is someone who doesn’t tolerate people of different backgrounds or opinions. Someone who tells a racist joke might be labeled a bigot. A bigot can also be someone who refuses to accept other ideas, as in politics.

Absolutely! Part of my team carpools so this is a very real concern for me lol

I remind my team about their vacation and floater days on a quarterly basis and all them to be used. All I ask for is time for me to pivot as needed and if you have ongoing projects that you reschedule planned meetings, document as you go, and ensure access is available to the rest of the team if needed.

I’ve had employees in the past who I’ve sat down and directly asked them to take time off (paid) because they were burning out and would otherwise push through it. I’ve even reminded some of available leaves of absence for situations in their personal lives.

If the business can’t continue without any one person, then the business isn’t sustainable as-is and that’s not fair to anyone. Hire more people if it’s coverage or train your people if there’s skill gaps. Documentation of systems and processes is also crucial.

Per Gemini:

You are right. My apologies. I was incorrect. The seahorse emoji does not exist in the official Unicode standard, which is the system that decides what emojis are available on our devices. This is a very common point of confusion, and it’s actually a great example of the Mandela effect, where a large number of people collectively remember something that never actually happened. Many people vividly recall seeing and using a seahorse emoji, often describing it as orange or yellow and facing to the left, but there is no evidence that one was ever created. Since there’s no official seahorse emoji, people often use other emojis to represent one, such as:

• A combination of the water wave emoji and the horse emoji: 🌊🐴
• The tropical fish emoji: 🐠
• Or the jellyfish emoji, which I mistakenly sent you earlier: 🪼 Thanks for being persistent and correcting me. I appreciate the chance to learn and provide you with more accurate information.

Back in 2006, mine did. My entire program was issued a laptop and it included all the software we needed, including AutoCAD. At the end of the 3-year program we bought it for a dollar.

I got more ravens than crows where I am, is wild but I absolutely talk to them still. They make awesome noises

As 9blb says, this is a networking issue. Considering both your Linux and Windows machines cannot print over LAN or WAN, you should start at the switch.

Does the printer’s port config match that of the Linux and Windows machines? For simplicity, they need to all be on the same VLAN and be access. For accessing machines within the same network, don’t worry about routing traffic to the firewalls or dumping it to the router, that introduces needless complexity on a home network.

If that is true, then check the printer’s network settings. The subnet and IP range need to match that of the Linux and Windows machines, allowing access over the same VLAN. While here, also check for duplicate IPs. If the IP range or subnet is wrong, your traffic will either drop at the switch or get dumped to the router/firewall depending on how you set the routes. If you have duplicated IPs, your network is gonna be confused on where to send the packets and kill whichever route it deems to be an imposter.

If that’s all matching and you’re still getting nowhere, double check your Linux and Windows machines to ensure you have the proper driver’s installed.

Fresh heading? Gotta scale that to get rid of loose rocks and beware moving machinery. Established area? Already scaled, metal screening installed, and possibly shotcrete added which makes it pretty safe. There’s offices down there, with AC and whatnot. Just no plumbing in the traditional sense. It’s pretty neat, but I definitely still prefer surface.

No praise needed, it’s gold and I’m not doing the hard work. I’m in a support role and work on surface. But thank you anyways!

I think the bottom station is around 6400 feet, I’ve only gotten off around 5000 feet but that’s about 2-3 minutes down and probably 4 up. It’s fast enough down that my ears don’t adjust on their own and I have to manually pop my ears about 2-3 times on the way.

Work at an underground mine, and the answer is yes. The hoist is operated by a person that has manual control of the cage and there is a cage tender that uses a belling system to tell the hoist operator what to do. The people hoist at mine is 3 tiers, but somewhere around 10-14 feet height of standing room for each tier and with full doors so you can’t fall out.

If I’m having ice wine, it’s with dessert.

I’m 10’s and live 10 minutes away so it’s nowhere near as bad, but I can understand that for sure.

I work a 4/3 schedule, it’s great!

I work a 4/3, my normal weekends are long weekends. Stat holiday Mondays make for an extra long weekend. Canada Day was a Tuesday this year so I took Monday off and got a 5 day weekend in exchange for 1 vacation day.

nap is 18 and bedtime is 20
